*EXQUISITE J.P. SAUER BOXLOCK EJECTOR DBL BBL SHOTGUN.

Revised: 3/3/2008

(Correction) Please Note: Full length view of gun with gold inlays is correct and all of the close ups are correct, however the top photo together with the spare bbls sans gold inlays is not a Sauer and has nothing to do with this lot, it is an image of lot 570 which is a Parker Reproduction DHE Cased Two Bbl Set. The gun is as described and correct, there is only that one photo that is incorrect.

*EXQUISITE J.P. SAUER BOXLOCK EJECTOR DBL BBL SHOTGUN. SN 175766. Cal. 12ga. High grade, pre-war game gun with 30” Krupp bbls, choked MOD/FULL, raised tapered and matted concave game rib with third bite extension for a Greener style cross bolt. Mounted in highly figured walnut with finely checkered splinter forend with horn tip, checkered pistol grip stock with engraved steel cap. Provisions for “Bretelle Automatique” sling system mounted in butt with a receiving stud on bbls. Gun has cocking indicators, dbl triggers and engraved side safety in the left stock cheek. The side-clipped and scalloped receiver is exquisitely engraved in full coverage vine and open scroll work on a black matted background with gold encrusted game scene vignettes of two flying ducks on left side, two hares on the right side and a deer with two fawns on the floorplate. Triggerguard is similarly adorned with a gold encrusted bird of prey dispatching a hare. The makers name is engraved in a flowing banner on each side of the receiver. 14-3/8” over a leather covered pad. Drop at heel: 2-1/8”. Drop at comb: 1-9/16”. Bore dimensions: left – .718”, right – .724”. Choke restrictions: left – .015”, right – .035”. Bbl wall thickness: left – .026”, right – .032”. Weight: 7lbs 1.6oz. CONDITION: Fine to very fine. Bbls retain 95% bright blue with some thinning at muzzles and along the forend with scattered pinprick pitting overall. Receiver, forend metal and trigger bow are all a pleasing, smooth gray. There is some discoloration of the receiver edges and triggers from stock wax. Grip cap shows some thinning of blue on edges and highpoints. Wood is sound, retaining virtually all of a professionally restored finish. Mechanics are fine. Sling system is fully functional, leather is sound but dry. Bore is bright and shiny. 4-32697 (6,500-9,500)
